dogcents

I came across this picture while surfing the net at funny dogs.net and altho it does look like a cute picture I thought to myself ” this dog does not look like it really feels like smiling and then looking at the picture closely I realized that the teeth were not the dogs own teeth but some nickle and dime store bought Vampire teeth. This dog really has no real reason to smile he problably feels uncomfortable. Do dogs have emotions? pets and dogs: do they love, have feelings and what does that mean for humans… I read an article where it said why should we pay attention to pet’s emotional lives when scientists have always thought the very idea that any species less then human knows the chosen volition of love and free will. Man is unique in his ability to choose and to love, according to modern science.. yet several free thinking scientists have found much more to ponder in doing the unthinkable.. studying animals, without preconceptions or expectations… and coming to the conclusion that animals do indeed know how to love…. ” Marc Bekoff, professor of biology at the University of Colorado, has published more than 175 papers and 15 books related to animal emotions. Some of his books were co-authored by the famous Jane Goodall. There are some dogs that are very special they can sniff out drugs and others can sniff out cancer. Some dogs are so loyal and love their masters so much that as soon as their owners pass away they also die of broken hearts. Many dogs put their lives in danger in order to protect those they love. So Im sure those of you who do own dogs and love them know already that you do not need to read all those books about dogs and their emotions to know that dogs do have emotions and that they do love us. Take care of your animals and love them for they love us unconditonally.
